you can root your phone and put a new rom if you can go to the "HBOOT screen" and connect the phone to the computer, then follow the ADB instructions and install the esprim.zip, i think it can work, try it
[Atrix 4G General] tical2k:
I recently got a .lxterminal from my Atrix to my computer's X11/Xorg server. From there it was a matter of time.

/system/xbin/adduser whatever

/system/xbin/telnetd

on local machine...

telnet <atrix IP>

So we don't have ssh, but hell old school telnet works. Not sure what help this is or if anyone else has found this yet. So just throwing it out there. Makes it a hell of a lot easier to muck around ;-)

I guess the adduser / telnetd could be done from a terminal app as well...

Well.. I was able to add my user to the sudoers file using w! in vi, and create my .bashrc (sudo works). Also managed to "start" the webtop to my laptops's x11. By start I mean I get the webtop-wallpaper show up in my laptop's X11. My goal would be to get the webtop to be able to be viewable remotely. Why?... Why not? Pretty useless I guess, but whatever.

[Atrix 4G General] tical2k:
It only showed the wallpaper, but here's what i did:

on computer, verify you have x11 forwarding set up. Depending you need to edit your hosts.allow, and maybe an X config to allow connections.

on computer

1. xhost <atrix IP>

on atrix connection

2. export DISPLAY=<computer IP>:0

3. sudo /osh/etc/alternatives/x-session-manager

or

sudo /osh/usr/bin/x-session-manager

that pops open the wallpaper, like i said. Doesn't seem to open the webtop completely
[Atrix 4G General] kriffer:
Any progress on this?
[Atrix 4G General] tical2k:
nope... I kinda left it for another time when I'm bored.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaosdefinesorder:
Hi guys, I've tried searching the internet at large as well as the forums here and I can't seem to find any conclusive answer.:confused:

Basically, does the Dell Streak have support for the Apt-X codec for A2DP?

I have seen articles and news suggesting that Android devices may support Apt-X, but nothing concretely saying that they do!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheManii:
By what i've read im gonna have to say no.

If it does support android it would be something added in by the phone maker or carrier and advertised as an added function, and i've never heard of it before (nor on the streak's spec sheets). They wouldnt add a distinguishing feature into a device and forget to mention at all. If it had it, it would likely be on one of those added on label things on the box.

I would assume aptx headphones would still work under normal a2dp (but as i dont have any a2dp headphones i cant comment on that even)

So I recently flash CM7 RC1, and I tried to charge my battery for the first time with the ROM, it doesn't charge.... I plugged in my USB to PC and started transferring and pushed some files in. Then I noticed that it my phone wasn't charging, and then I tried using the AC charger and it shows its charging for like a couple of minutes then states your battery is low and stuff. I then go into settings and checked out the status of my battery. It shows "Discharging" any ideas what this means and why its not charging?

[G Tablet General] aldar5:
I cannot access my external sd card that's in my gTab from windows via the USB cable. I seem to remember that when I first bought it , I could see both the internal and external storage when I connected the gTab to Windows via USB (when it still had stock ROM). Now I am running rooted VEGAn-TAB-v1.0.0b5.1.1 and when I connect it via USB to windows I can only see the internal storage (I couldn't see it when I tried cyanogenmod either). I can access both brom the gTab just fine and if I take out the ext. sd card, windows reads it just fine.

Any idea why and/or how to access both internal and external storage from windows when gTab is plugged in via USB to windows?

I have a problem whenever connected to any usb. I cannot unlock the phone. I do not get a response to certain presses. I cannot write a text (random letters are pressed). I use my NS as an alarm clock. I have to set the alarm and put the phone in clock mode before Docking (whereas it becomes unresponsive after connected).

You might need to go into MGLDR.

Turn phone off.

Hold down the power button until the mgldr menu pops up.

Use the volume buttons to move up and down.

Goto AD HardReset.

Press the Green phone button.

And then reboot

Strange... I've updated and found the battery life to be fine. I'm on 50% after about 36 hours. I use Quick Settings to turn off everything except mobile data (including Auto-sync) when I leave for work in the morning, but wi-fi and auto-sync are back on as soon as I'm home. I used to have a Hero and had to calibrate the battery from time to time - not sure how that's done on the Defy, though.

previous owner states...'Volume Down button doesnt work, also sound doesnt work, and has no wifi... Now my question is...Can I restore this phone to wm6.5 or android or wm7 again and make it work properly? Is it only a bad install making these problems? or is this phone just a brick wannabe? Is it destined to stay as is?

[Nook Color General] plugged_in_now:
So I rooted my Nook with autonooter 3.0.0, I followed all the directions entirely. It worked perfectly, I liked it but wanted to try other stuff. Then I successfully installed Honeycomb v4 on my Nook, I tried it out, but didn't like it, I'll wait until later as its more developed. Then I installed CM7 on my Nook. Its nice, but for some reason a lot of my important apps force close on me. So I thought would just return to stock and then go to autonooter. I tried the method found here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=914690

So I don't know if it matters, but I remember formatting boot, system, and data in CWR during the installations of Honeycomb, and also formatting the system and data in CM7 and also in trying to return to stock. So in each of the installations I followed all of the directions perfectly.

Ok, so here is my problem. After I try to return to stock, I try to boot up my Nook, it goes to the Touch the Future of Reading screen, then to the screen with the 'n' on it and the adobe message at the bottom comes up. However, it will not go passed this. It hangs and I cannot fix it. I have tried the 8 reboots which does reinstall the original firmware, however when its complete and reboots it does not boot, it does the same thing I just described.

Please help, if I have left out any information just ask and I will fill in the details.
[Nook Color General] hvuong2:
There is a recovery zip on the development forum. Boot into cwr and flash... that should do the trick... hopefully.

Doesnt he need to format the partions with a ext3 cwr before flashing or will the recovery do that?
[Nook Color General] plugged_in_now:
Yeah, I'm beginning to think I do have to fix up the partitions because everything I do is just giving me more hang.

Can anyone help with that?
[Nook Color General] DizzyDen:
Get CWR 3.0.5...

Write the SD card image to your uSD...

Copy repartition-boot-with-stock.zip to the root of the SD card...

Decide if you want to restore to 1.0.0 or 1.0.1 and copy the appropriate nook-complete-restore-1.0.x.zip to root of the SD card....

Boot off the SD card in your NC

since you say you have formatted boot... shouldn't ever need to do that btw...

Format Boot... System... Data... and cache...

Install the repartition boot zip file... then the complete system restore from SD card.
[Nook Color General] Andrmgic:
yeah.. once you reformat with CWR 3.0.0.5 you should be able to do the re-partition boot flash and then restore the image.

I just got back that way as well.
[Nook Color General] plugged_in_now:
Thanks for all the help! I'm going to try this now. And I'm guessing it is, but will it be ok to use CWR 3.0.0.6 and boot with that from the SD card?
[Nook Color General] Andrmgic:
It needs to be CWR 3.0.0.5 in my experience.

3.0.0.6 supports EXT4 partitions and won't format them back to EXT3.. as long as they are EXT4, the nook will not boot into the stock rom.

The stock kernel doesn't support EXT4.. so it hangs just before it loads the system files..

If you wipe the partitions using 3.0.0.5 and install the full recovery image for 1.01 you should be a-ok.
[Nook Color General] plugged_in_now:
Alright I got it! You guys are the best! Thanks for the help! Now I just need to re-root and I'm good to go! Thanks again!

Oh and yeah I used 3.0.0.5, that may have been the problem all along because I kept trying to fix with 3.0.0.6. Thanks!

i installed the timescape apk from the arc dump as well as the plugins that work with the timescape app. I was able to get it semi working like the facebook, twitter and,messaging would show up in the timescape slider but when i went to log in facebook or twitter it would crash, also in the dialer/phonebook when u go to call log it would fc or when u make a call it fc. I have uploaded the whole app dump from the arc hoping maybe somebody can get these working because they look really nice.

To get the timscape to work i had to install

TimescapeSpline.apk- which is timescape its self

EventStream.apk, EventStreamPluginCallLog.apk, EventStreamPluginFacebook.apk, EventStreamPluginTelephony.apk, EventStreamPluginTwitter.apk.

The for the dialer i installed

Phonebook.apk,InfiniteView.apk- this gives u and indepth view of your contacts it looks really cool

I am running the customized Nookie Froyo 0.6.8 on a SD Card and have the Nook eReader installed. I am not sure how I move my personal ePub files - free books downloaded, no DRM - to be read on the Nook eReader. I tried to connect to my PC with a USB cable, then enabled USB on the NC. Then in Windows Explorer I tried moving the files to various directories like Nook, Nook/My Documents, My Files etc., but no matter where I put the files when I go into the Nook eReader it does not see the files (I am looking in My Files section). I even tried using Aldiko - that did not work either. Calibre says the files are transferred to the SD Card.

Any ideas? Would appreciate any help. Thanks.
[Nook Color General] janus2000:
Never mind I found the answer here. Interesting that you have to use ADB to push ePub files and you cannot transfer them using Calibre or Windows Explorer. I thought ADB was for programs only.

Thanks to all you guys for the fantastic job in making the NC a working Android tablet.
[Nook Color General] sog1971:
I use dropbox for this as well. GIven that I had updated 4 or 5 different builds and ran on SD card for each of them, it was handy to just download the dropbox.apk and have all of my personal epubs available each time.
[Nook Color General] janus2000:
Thats a great solution! Can you tell me where I can get more information on how to use Dropbox? I see I already have the app.
[Nook Color General] hawkinsandponcho:
+1 for this. Running the same config and haven't messed around with adb at all.
[Nook Color General] Polydwarf:
Disclaimer : I don't use the nook app; I use fbreader, so ymmv with this.

Anyways, the way I get epubs out of Calibre onto the nook is via the Calibre webserver. Turn it on on your pc (In Calibre, Preferences->Sharing->Sharing over the net, set up what you need, then hit the Start Server button), then access it via your nook color's web browser (make sure you use the port you set up in the url, that that port isn't blocked by a firewall, etc).

From there, you can just click to download the epubs. On mine (nookie froyo), it asks whether I want to complete the action with the browser or with fbreader. I choose fbreader and it will download it and add it to its library (if you're curious where the files get dropped, on mine it's /mnt/sdcard/Books/<ip address of my desktop>/get/EPUB).

FBReader can also talk to OPDS servers for network libraries, which the calibre web server also talks (it's just a specifically formatted) xml feed). Go into Network Library, then click the Add Catalog link. The OPDS url to use:

http colon slash slash <your server ip>:<port you setup>/opds/

(gotta love new user link protection)

The resaon I go through the nook browser instead of the network library is because the calibre web server allows actual searching. The OPDS feed doesn't allow searching (though it does allow you to get at your library through a number of different categorizations, which might be sufficient for you). Fair warning, too, that since I haven't used OPDS much, there may be something I'm missing about it.
